I can look at this over the weekend, but I don't claim to be a great css
expert... has anyone any clues as to how I can force IE6 to render these

I give up. I 'borrowed' the style sheets for 'why' from someone who was more skilled in this stuff that I am. At the moment, it's broken, and I can't fix it. I've put up an alert suggesting people upgrade their browsers :-(

The alert displays also in IE7 which renders the page correctly...

Anyway, this is a modern CSS layout, and such layouts virtually always break in IE6. The only way to render them correctly is to use the oldschool table layout, which means rewriting the code for the purposes of displaying it in this browser.

Will it be possible to localize this page eventually? I suggest that the language menu could be a dropdown list and basically it would be selected according to the browser prefs.

Thanks - John
p.s. I thought I had checked these pages out under IE6 when the sitewide
stylesheets were changed ... obvioulsy I didn't :-(

Hi John,

It seems that the why pages are not displayed correctly under IE6, most
of the messages said :
-----------
The page linked by the homepage "I want to learn more about
OpenOffice.org"  (http://why.openoffice.org/) is bad.  Half the page is
missing or covered with white.  Can't read or find out about the
software.
-----------
Could you see what hapenened before my mail box self destroy ;)
BTW they displayed ok for me this evening under firefox.

Thanks a lot
Kind regards
Sophie
